CC3220SF-LAUNCHXL: Should I be Avoiding C++ for CC3220SF / SimpleLink development?

Per this thread, it doesn't seem like a good idea to be using C++ with the CC3220SF chips: thread here

Question -- should I be avoiding it? It took me three days to figure out the problem. According to the poster from TI no one is using (and therefore probably not testing) things with C++.

Having a problem at the onset of doing basic things with C++ gives me pause and makes me wonder if I should just be using C.

    Hi,

    With small embedded MCUs is generaly better to use C. C++ can be used, but you need to precisely known how compiller at your device works exactly. In case you not keep this in mind, you can generate really non-optimized binary which wastes of many resources. Usage of C a safer option especially when all ecosystem (SDK, examples) is build around C.
